When a team wants to lose its rep as a laughingstock of
nfl jerseys wholesale the NBA, they could do a lot worse than their franchise point guard winning Gary Payton's seal of approval. John Wall has been turning heads around the NBA over the past month, impressing not just opponents but also legendary former players and coaches. The legendary guard, as well as notoriously outspoken former Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy, have heaped praise on Wall's play as he's propelled the Wizards to something close to respectability.
"[Wall] tweeted me and asked for
nfl jerseys my number and I called him and we've been tight ever since," Payton told Grantland's Holly MacKenzie of the Washington Wizards guard this week. "He's a kid where I like him because he called me to ask me how to get better at playing defense and how to become a good point guard."
Van Gundy has changed his tune on Wall as well. "I
nfl jerseys china think that he has proven me wrong in terms of his value to a team," he said to Dan Steinberg of the Washington Post on Thursday. "I'm still not sure he's enough to build a team around, but if you could put a great offensive player around him, then possibly that could be enough to start pushing this team to the upper echelon of the Eastern Conference."
